• • Should I try Age of Conan?

    So nobody has a trial or buddy key? Because if not I'll not get to try this game because I don't pay anything for a MMO that I have not tried first.

     

    So I guess I'll be not looking at Age of Conan for now

     

    (PS: I learned my lesson by listening to people at Mmorpg.com when I asked about Lineage 2 and people told me to go for it and it was great and I would love it.)

     

    So I am looking for trial, buddy key...

    Yeah save your money the trial will be out within the year I would think if funcom is smart.   The game isn't worth it atm, if they ever redo any of the underlying systems then it might be worth it but til then wait it out.

     Just heard about the 750K+ accounts created in WAR. You gotta love the fuzzy marketing math.

    Well, I have preordered the game, got into the headstart, created the account, found the game uninspiring and never condsidered buying it.

    did they count me into the 750K+?

     

    Says the guy who's entire post history consist of bashing WAR and hyping AOC hmmmm.  The fact that your profile says that you're 61 is just priceless, I thought all the guys that spent their time trying to drive people away from a game to come to their failing game were usually children, I learned something today lol.  Seriously WAR didn't live up to your "standards" but the walking pile of shit know as AOC did.  The total lack of a underlying reason to pvp never got to you? the gankfest and sophomoric community didn't get to you?  At any rate enjoy that sinking ship I'll be  over here in WAR enjoying PVP that actually matters at least a bit and gasp, allows me to make progress.

    I'll be honest, when I read you comparing the graphics of a MMO to a game like Call of Duty, I stopped reading, the amount of processing power from both your CPU and GPU aren't anywhere near what they would have to be to have a MMO on par with top notch graphical non MMO games.  If you don't understand that then I do expect you to understand much else of MMO's.

    acutally you dont understand ill better explain my point....Crysis and Fear are 2 games that will bring even the most powerul PC to their knees. even years after with Fear.

    however games such as Call of Duty 4 and UT3 prove you can have games that look great and run 60-150fps on med and high end hardware and run 30fps on low-med specs.

    its shortsighted to think that you have to have below average graphics to run anything with alot of players....Resitiance 2 has 60 player maps and it runs on a console with much less ablity than a average PC with a much higher graphic demand.

    even AoC has proved once they got their bugs worked out you can have high graphics a 40+ players on the screen adn still have a playable framerate....

    im not asking for Crysis graphics just a middle ground. what we were given was not a middle ground but a low road.

    once again this is just my opinion and i of course respect yours ive been playing MMO's since UO so no need to call in to question what i know about MMO's

       Once again MMO's ARE NOT GOING TO RESEMBLE SINGLE PLAYER OR ONLINE FPS GAMES.  This isn't even debatable.  You ever wonder what kind of concessions have to be made to a make a mmo even resemble that lvl of graphics?  Basically you have to put everyone into instances of instances like AOC.  Now for one sec lets say you want to fight 100's on 100's in a small space, take a guess which mmo would render that situation better AOC or Warhammer.

     

    Thats why we all kinda laughed when you render a lvl in COD4 or any other FPS the actually geometry of the boards is absolutely tiny so rendering that is quite a bit easier than rendering a world that is 10 or more times the real estate just for the geometry of the area that you are in let alone all the lighting, bit mapping and individual character details.  Ever wonder why Korean games have so little customization when they are centered around PVP?  I've just given you your answer.  Like it or not you won't see a mmo that even compares to COD4 or any other FPS in the near future, most PC's have way to many bottlenecks for the things you are wishing for to become a reality in the near future.

    To be honest, I dont really know a single athiest that trys to convert people, myself being an athiest and thus included.  I really dont care what religion people are, but as soon as they start talking shit then I will not hesitate to back myself up.

     

    And athiesm is not a relgion, they dont believe in anything, its only a title used to catagorize us.  Nothing more, we dont get together talking of the evils of the christian society and say that if they dont convert they will all live a life of misery (as some churches do).

     

    And the only time I will actually bash religion without being provoked is when I want to have some argumentive fun, I really dont care to convert anyone, its just so funny watching christians or any other religion get all rowled up and pissed off, and then use the same argument around 30 times.

     

    Grow up would be my answer.  Are you threatened by chirstians? No?  Then best to leave them be.  The fact is I often see athiest do just what you describe which is basically just being a dick for the sake of being a dick.  I don't preach to anyone I believe in a god but don't try to shove it down others throats, on the flip side I've seen athiest go to great lengths and get angry simply because I hold a belief and they can't break nor bend my faith. 

    Funny how that works,  I could care less what others decide to believe but you attack my faith and I'll refute your flimsy bs with my beliefs, don't like it, well GOD bless freedom of speech AND religion.  To the person who commented on the USA well our country was sorta founded on the christian belief system and so its protected and a daily part of many of our lives, like it our lump it. 

    Actually the only time I've ever been in a arguement over religion was when  a clannie decided as a athiest he would call all chirstians idiots for our beliefs so yes I defended my religion and guess what he got kicked from the guild for his hateful comments.

    Ironic how that works,  if he's so secure in his beliefs why go to great lengths to demean and discredit anyone who was christian(or any faith for that matter)  personally I think he is shaky in his own beliefs and therefore needs to belittle others beliefs.

    So please,stop the crying for god sake.......no one cares anymore.....cept maybe ten of you in these forums..get over it.....silly lil kids.....

     

    Ah look everyone a troll has wondered into the refuge area to talk down to us "kids".  Thank for your concern but I'm 30 and no I won't get over it.  If you want to continue to feed SOE money for this steaming pile of shit be my guest, but unless you were around pre nge you have no clue what has taken place over the years so please be quiet and let the big people talk.  Enjoy your recycled graphics resources and your skeleton team slapping together more craptastic content for people just like you.  The game is a sinking ship and everyone knows that outside of a handful of the die hards that just can't let go, so.... maybe you should get over it and exit the refuge to the current players forum, sound good champ?
